2026.2.4

It was fine.

Today is Risshun (立春), one of nijushisekki, 24 solar terms. Last one was Daikan (大寒) on January 20 and the next one is Usui (雨水) on February 19.

Risshun is the first day of spring. Though it is still cold, it is already spring on the calendar. 

Present campaign of the No.197 ebook has started.

I feel like to have 200 publishing party.

2026.2.3

It was fine and cold.

Today is setsubun (節分) when is the division point of winter and spring, therefore it is  the end of winter.

There are four setsubun in a year. But there is a special ritual on the day before the start of spring, risshun (立春).

We throw roast soy beans saying "Demons out and fortunes in."

We eat roasted soy beans as the same number of our age.

This year I tried the new good luck charm, that is eat 8 beans, drink something hot, eat 8 beans, drink again, regulate breathing, and eat 2 beans.

After work I went to a gas station to fill up the car and grocery shopping. I bought special sweets for today.

2026.2.2

It was fine.

I published the 197th ebook about sunlight of January 2026.

To my glad my 196th ebook has been No.1 in Germany and the USA and Japan.

On my way home I went grocery shopping.

I watched two recorded movies.

Today is the full moon.
